As 2025 unfolds, The Coupe De’ Villes are celebrating over 4 decades of performing live music in the Western New York Region. The Coupe De’ Villes, or as known more commonly by their fans as The Coupes, has showed no signs of slowing down. The truth is that The Coupe De’ Villes continue to be one of the busiest bands based out of Rochester, NY.

Though The Coupe De’ Villes have changed with the times, the commitment to deliver the best entertainment possible remains. Original members consisting of guitarist Tommy Bianchi and vocalist Lex Byers continue to lead the band with high quality performances. Bassist Jeff Morrison has been locking down the bottom for 2 decades, teaming up with drummer Julius Varrenti to keep the groove tight.

Saxophonists Paul “Junior” Spezio and Ken Foster  power The Westside Horn Section, in addition Keyboardist/Vocalist Sam Gruttadauria and Junior Spezio on keyboards complete The Coupes’ sound.  All of these talented musicians have come together to form a powerful music group that has the versatility to perform multiple styles of music, in almost any venue imaginable. 

The Coupe De’ Villes look forward to our next decade of entertaining the people of Western New York with our unique blend of Blues, Funk, and Classic Rock music. Don’t let our age fool you, The Coupe De’ Villes are only getting better with age.
